The Revival: It Is Our Duty

The Revival: It Is Our Duty, originally created to celebrate Juneteenth, is led by Harlem-based composer Troy Anthony. Performed by The Fire Ensemble, the work lifts people out of their sorrow through songs and rituals that center collective liberation. Drawing on the traditions of the Black church, The Revival invites audiences into a space of healing, joy, and transformation. As they say in the Black church, “you won’t leave the way you came.”
